I was sitting in the living room, minding my own business, when I heard a scratch at the door. I arose from my place of reading the newspaper to see what or rather who was causing the noise, and found a little lost puppy on my door step. My first thought was, 'How on earth did you get here' as also I looked around the area. No one was in sight. The small dog sniffed at my feet, getting a giggle out of me before I bent down to its level, not realizing that evil itself had just paid me a visit.
Before I could even blink, that fur ball had run into my very home, beginning to bite, chew, and knock everything over! That little demon! I ran after it, shouting at it to stop, hoping that by being born under the sign of the dog that I'd have at least some control over it. The puppy looked at me, almost seeming to smile, as it picked up a wooden sandal in its mouth. That was one of my FAVORITE sandals. My eyes literally burning with a raging fire, I pointed at it and felt myself actually growl. As to where the growl came from is beyond my knowledge.
"You...put...that...down," I said through clenched teeth, the dog tilting its head in the cutest of manors as if saying 'Who, me?' For a second it looked as if it was really going to put my sandal down but sadly, things don't always go as we plan. The next thing I saw was a pile of wooden scraps and the puppy gone from my sight.
Ok. This was it. The final straw. If it was a fight this damn dog wanted, then it sure as hell got it! But before I could even attempt to chase after it once more, I found myself blinded by a screen of colored smoke as also that my form now rested on a heap of what had been my previous clothing. I had transformed....great. I knew, from previous experience, that a member of the zodiac should NEVER push their stress limits. Now thanks to this mutt I was a black dog, with no useful thumbs, and a tail sticking from my backside.
Ok, I lied. THIS WAS IT! With yet another growl I chased after the little monster, my paws taking me faster then my previous form had. In seconds I caught up to it and tackled it to the ground, the both of us now rolling across the floor in a mess of growls and yelps. Almost minutes later, a voice broke the battle.
"Sh-Shigure-san?" I heard the voice say.
I instantly released the puppy's neck from my canine teeth and looked to find Tohru-kun standing in the doorway, her eyes wide and mouth open. As if nothing had happened that day, the smaller dog ran to Tohru-kun, jumping at her leg and licking her hand as it lowered to pet him.
"Oh, what a cute puppy!" She exclaimed with her usual cheerful smile, the puppy licking happily at her face as I sat, still in my dog form, not believing what I was witnessing. As Tohru held that little monster within her arms, I could have sworn I heard it say, "Loser!"
